If you have observed either Red or Grey squirrels or Pine Martens in recent years, whether it be direct observation in woodlands or even dead animals at roadsides, they would like to hear from you!

WICKLOW MOTORSPORT - from the past
Eddie Fitzgerald

This illustrated presentation will concentrate on tarmac speed events from Wicklow's past, but as in any speed event there will be the occasional off-road excursion (planned in this case!).
Events covered will include the Bray "Round the Houses" car races, and the Wicklow and Rathdrum races (cars and bikes). Enniskerry Hillclimb will be highlighted as well as climbs at Calary and Altidore. Interesting references will be made to some well known competitors who have resided in Wicklow.

Eddie Fitzgerald has had a passionate interest in all aspects of motorsport since attending the 1962 Phoenix Park races as a child. He has been extensively involved in the organizing of the sport for over 45 years and published "The Dunboyne Races 1958 – 1967 " in 2008. He is currently completing a book on the Phoenix Park Races.
Eddie's presentation is sure to elicit many memories and stories from those attending this evening of nostalgia.
